Hello,<br><br>I am porting an application to Maemo 4.0 (Xournal)<br>I have successfully modified it to compile and run in my scratchbox (CHINOOK_X86 target)<br clear="all">(I haven't been kind and "make install"ed what was needed instead of packaging stuff the proper way.
<br><br>Anyway I wanted to do it clean for the ARMEL target. So I started packaging the dependencies first.<br>For example gail-1.20.1.<br><br>I've created the gail-1.20.1 with the clean sources in it and (from the dir) I've ran:
<br><br>dh_make -e <a href="mailto:anidel@gmail.com">anidel@gmail.com</a> -f ../packages/gail-1.20.1.tar.gz<br><br>and told it that gail is a library.<br>dh_make complained about a BROKEN package name "gailBROKEN" thus I went to
<br>debian/control<br><br>and used the package name "gail". I didn't change anythng else a part from the descriptions<br>I've removed useless files from the debian dir as stated in the Creating Debian Package HOWTO.
<br>Finally I've ran the command:<br><br>dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot<br><br>to build the deb files.<br><br>Here comes the issue. It created the debian/tmp dir with the binaries in it (everything compiled just fine),<br>
but it did not packaged them into the .deb file, just the debian/{control, changelog, copyright... } files...<br>(as shown by : dpkg -c ../gail_1.20.1-1_armel.deb)<br><br>What I am doing wrong ?<br>I've been struggling with the issue since this morning...
<br><br>PS: at the end it also complained about unkown substitution variables: <br><br>dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${shlibs:Depends}<br>dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${misc:Depends}
